About this Event
This January, step into an intimate performance of contemporary ballet and live music. Chamber Dance Project’s January 2027 season brings 9 exceptional dancers and our resident string quartet to Arena Stage’s Kreeger Theater on Saturday, January 9.
The program features the DC premiere of Sur le Fil, a striking and elusive ballet by choreographer Penny Saunders. Evocative and cinematic, the work moves between mystery and intensity. William Moore’s Slice makes its world premiere, a new work created for Chamber Dance Project in which movement is sharp, intense, and charged. The return of Dimensions, the second movement of Moore’s Murmur, centers on a dynamic male solo. Repertoire works by founding Artistic Director and choreographer Diane Coburn Bruning, include Arranged, an austere and beautifully haunting work, and Four Men, a playful yet physically demanding ballet.
Throughout the evening, musicians and dancers share the stage, responding to one another in real time. It is a defining part of the Chamber Dance Project experience—and one that makes every performance immediate, intimate, and alive.
